Achieving Sustainability in New Build and Retrofit: Building Performance and Life Cycle Analysis
The definition of a sustainable building is not a straightforward one. There are many criteria upon which the sustainability of a building can be judged, including but not limited to energy performance, financial viability and environmental and social impact. Any determination of the sustainability of a building will be dependent upon the criteria used to assess it. Much of the work undertaken by the Leeds Sustainability Institute on building sustainability focusses on energy performance in buildings.
